From: Visit-to-visit fasting plasma glucose variability is an important risk factor for long-term changes in left cardiac structure and function in patients with type 2 diabetes

Annualized change in left cardiac structural and functional parameters of patients grouped by quartile of CV-FPG levels. a Anualized change in LA (a), LVDd (b), IVS (c), LVPW (d), LVMI (e), LVEF (f), E/A ratio (g) and E/e′ ratio (h) among groups divided by quartile of CV-FPG levels. Data are shown as mean ± SD. *P < 0.05, **P < 0.01 versus the Q1 group; #P < 0.05, ##P < 0.01 versus the Q2 group; &P < 0.05, &&P < 0.01 versus the Q3 group by one-way ANOVA. LA, left atrium; LVDd, left ventricular internal end-diastole dimension; IVS, interventricular septum; LVPW, left ventricular posterior wall thicknesses; LVMI, left ventricular mass index; LVEF, left ventricular ejection fraction; Q1, the first quartile; Q2, the second quartile; Q3, the third quartile; Q4, the fourth quartile
